What are your lessons from Mains 2023 and strategy for upcoming mains?

Recently mains results were declared. Competition is increasing in every attempt. How are you guys planning to utilize the upcoming months to rise like a phoenix?

My thoughts after writing Mains.

1. Time management is the most important aspect. you need to have at least 6 minutes while attempting last question if it is 10 marker or 8-9 minutes while writing last 15 marker.

2. underlining keyword is MUST.

2A. work on conclusion to fetch that extra 0.5 mark per question.

3. Make short notes (i call them farra) for the last minute revision to boost your confidence and reproduce them instantly in exam. 

4. right interpretation of question in real time is rewarding and addressing explicit and inherent demand (the extra mile ) will help in conquering the exam.

5. maintain one single source for CA throughout the year for pre, mains - it helps in quick revision.

6. if i had not cleared mains then i would have focussed on both optional paper, 1 gs paper and essay (would have mainly focussed on PYQ, New material and making notes out of it)  till 15th march for improvement.
